Spiritual Science Fiction

The Fifth Commandment is a supernatural memoir entwined with a plot drenching with old-fashioned religious guilt, and short enough to finish in a single sitting - perhaps lounging by the pool or sitting in the garden. The novella follows Christina into a confessional and starts at what we would consider our weakest point.

This story is about a personal quest. The protagonist, an artist and aspiring shaman, gains knowledge of time travel, shape shifting, extra sensory perceptions, and the realities that operate beyond the familiar rules of causality. She experiences a series of adventures that put her in contact with powerful energies, multiversal, and spiritual beings. These experiences radically transform her self perception and her mindset.

Carolina Black is content enough with her humble art gallery in a ramshackle town, but her life takes a turn for the unexpected when a fall-by-mopping leaves her trapped inside a fairy tale painting late one night. Desperate to return to her world before a looming deadline closes her gallery's doors forever, Carolina must sort her way through a labyrinth of nonsensical nursery rhymes before the king - a malevolent wolf - can catch her.
